The Playboy Interview With Kathy Griffin

For the July/August 2018 issue of Playboy magazine, I spoke to Kathy Griffin for one of her first major interviews following her precipitous fall from grace after she shared an image of a ketchup-slathered mask of President Donald Trump on social media. Kathy Griffin was blacklisted by Hollywood's powerful immediately after; this interview kicked off her massive comeback that crescendoed with her selling out Carnegie Hall in one day in 2018.
